Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The karl storz instrumentation being used for the procedure was from a rental set.Our sales representative was present during the procedure, and he noted the resectoscope working element was leaking badly.He discovered the washer (part # 9466590) for use with the working element was still in the rental set case and was most likely not on the working element.A missing washer would have caused the working element to leak.
 
Event or Problem Description
Allegedly, during an incision of urethra valve procedure, saline was leaking from the resectoscope due to a washer that was missing; the surgeon was unable to maintain distension and removed and reinserted the scope several times to troubleshoot the problem, which resulted in a urethral tear.
